- You are provided with three 2D data points, p1, p2 and p3. Solving A C = B for C provides youwith the coefficients of a natural cubic spline curve that interpolates these points.Additionally, you have been given A and B, but some elements are missing. Moreover, the last two rowsof A are entirely absent. Your task is to determine and fill in the missing elements. For the last two rows,enforce a zero tangent at the beginning (in p1) and a not-a-knot boundary condition in p2. The matricesA and B are given as follows:Explain how to find the entries of A and B . How would you adapt these matrices if the data pointswere 3D? What if your spline should go through five data points? How many “extra rows” would there thenbe (with “extra” meaning “in addition to securing C2-continuity”)?arrow_forwardQ2*) In question P3 we showed that a minimal surface of revolution is given by revolution (about the x-axis) of the catenary, with equation y = C cosh ((x – B)/C). - (a) Suppose, without loss of generality, that the catenary passes through the initial point P = (x1,y1) = (0, 1). First deduce an expression for the one-parameter family of catenaries passing through point P. Next calculate the value of x at which y takes its minimum value. By using the inequality cosh > √2 (you might like to think about how to prove this), show that there are points Q for which it is impossible to find a catenary passing through both P and Q. In particular, show that it is impossible to find a catenary joining the points (0, 1) and (2, 1). (b) A minimal surface of revolution can be realised experimentally by soap films attached to circular wire frames (see this link and this link for examples). The physical reason for this is that the surface tension, which is proportional to the area, is being minimised.…arrow_forwardQ3*) Consider the integral I Yn, Y₁, Y2, . . ., Y'n) dã, [F(x, Y 1, Y2, · · Yng) = - where y1, 2, ...y are dependent variables, dependent on x.

Optional: Give an example of a function F(y1, Y2, Y₁, y2), and write down the Euler-Lagrange equations and Beltrami Identity for your example.
